Similar,
From what we have seen from the air, it's a possibility that the big lake may still be froze. Of course, if we get some rain and wind things will change quickly.
The stretch has black ice on it and there is also some ice from the white jugs back to a cluster of islands in the middle of esox.
We are planning on going in on sunday and don't expect any problems.
1dirtball,
Pipestone will be out on saturday from what we have seen.

Hey Cedarnarrows guy,
How much land do you guys own up there? Is there any bush land around them that they know might be for sale?

Superbee,
How's Pipestone looking, especially the west arm?
The boys up there were begging for us to come last week...saying the ice was out. I don't think so!!! Leech Lake(MN) still was iced up. I thnk they just were looking for card players, and were willing to play our whole waking hours!!

Anyone know the status of the ice on Eagle Lake (near Dryden)? I'm heading up on the 24th and optimistic that everything will be opened up by then, but am still a little nervous.

Any updates on Manitou? Thanks Manitou is still pretty tight. A pilot flew over today and said it will be a while yet for the Manitou. The 13th will be touchy by the sounds of it. He will be flying almost daily and I can give an update when he sees some changes. Pipestone is partially out, but should be pretty much ice free by the weekend hopefully.

Bigsand,
Esox and the stretch are both open, the big lake is very close but not open yet. We are expecting rain the next couple of days, so it could be the next day or so.

Does anyone know if the ice is off of Savoy lake near Ignace or also Peguchi? Also has anyone heard if the bait stores have had trouble getting minnows?

I've just heard the ice is out on Eagle Lake at Vermillion Bay. The rest of the lake should be clear of ice by later today or tomorrow at the latest.

The lakes around Ignace should be ice free. Ignace Airways did a scouting flight Tuesday over their camps and ours all located north of Ignace. They said there was almost no ice left and it should all be gone by this weekend.
